The "black box of doom" isn't the obvious one
5 stars
Sure, there's a roadie case, but the book is a commentary on what divides us, and those who benefit. Rarely have I heard a more direct and fair expression of unpleasant views, and they're met with the only response I think can ever work. Angry people aren't always wrong on the facts, per se, just in where they choose to focus.
Unrelated to the "John Dies" series or the "Zoey Ashe" series, this book still moves with the energy of both, but is even more relatable than both for being entirely plausible here today.
